ABSTRACT
The paper reviews in brief about various water distribution methods and waste management of water
supplies. Different case studies about waste water management and water supplies have been studied and
reviewed especially in the Indian geographic context to find out what has already been done and what
could be done in future.
INTRODUCTION
This project is a part of Survey to be carried out by EST Department of Shivaji University, in order to
assess the present water distribution system of University. This project covers the university’s water
supply system including the supply network, all types of waste, water storage tank (all underground tanks),
elevated storage reservoir (ESR), pumping system, waste water storage tanks (septic tank) and water
distribution. This project also aims to find out the drawbacks of present system and give some
recommendations to accommodate the future increase in demand for water in a sustainable manner and
avoid upcoming water management problems in future. Shivaji University is doing such a holy work of
Nation building and imparting quality education. It is a public education university located in Kolhapur,
Maharashtra. The campus has more than 54 major buildings with a combined area of 37156353.32 square
feet (853.787 acres). The campus of university is huge and is divided into various departments, hostels
and quarter’s right from ancient history to recent development in nanoscience, biotechnology and various
other subjects are thought in this university. As a result the number of students learning in this university is
increasing day by day. With the increasing number of students the demand of water is also increasing at
high alarming rates. This has caused to the rise of water scarcity problem in university campus. The
intensity of this scarcity is so acute that sometimes there is severe shortage of potable water. The water
supply network of Shivaji University is very complex and old. Many of the major water lines running in
the campus were laid at the time of establishment of the institute. Since, then numerous minor and major
changes have taken place in the network. But, the primary source of drinking water still remains the
Kolhapur Municipal Corporation (KMC) pipeline. This water is used for various purposes in the campus
by various uses - residential, hostels, academic and hospitality uses, laboratory uses, used for
landscaping/gardening, for construction, fire purposes, etc.
Water is one of the important sources to the sustain life and has long been suspected of being the source of
much human illness. Source of surface water and ground water have become increasingly contaminated
due to increased industrial and agricultural activity. Water is known to contain large number of chemical
element, the interaction of both physical and chemical properties of water play a significant role in
composition, distribution, and abundance of aquatic community. Characteristics of water bodies influence
the quality of water individually and in combination with various pollutants, thereby influencing the biota
there in.
Kolhapur city is prominent city of south western Maharashtra is rapidly emerging as a leading industrial
and commercial centre. The development of city created directly or indirectly a number of water quality
problem .The city once supported to have 40 small and large lakes is presently left with only few. Lakes in
Shivaji University campus are the sole source of water gardening, laboratory use for various department
and hostels from the campus and these lakes has potential to sustain variety of biota.

CASE STUDIES:
Nagpur- City-wide Public- Private Partnership for water supply
This case profiles the initiative of Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) to implement a 25-year Public-
Private Partnership (PPP) project for provision of continuous water supply on a city-wide scale. It offers
vital lessons and insights for other cities seeking ways to transform their water supply service delivery by
emphasizing the need for holistic planning and an integrated set of actions for implementing city-scale
PPPs and highlights the need for institutional clarity, balanced contractual arrangements,
political/administrative commitment, rigorous stakeholder engagement and consumer communication
processes, and provides some insights for sequencing of tariff reform.

Trichy - Community managed toilet complexes
Tiruchirappalli Municipal Corporation’s (TMC) focus on leveraging support of Self-Help Groups (SHG)
to build local ownership and involve local community in addressing the challenge of universal sanitation
coverage is noteworthy. The case documents the successful transformation of 213 slums out of a total of
285 slums into Open Defecation free slums in its efforts to meet its goal of becoming Open defecation free
by 2015.
Sanjay Rode, (2010) studied sustainable drinking water supply in Pune Metropolitan region. The demand
of drinking water is continuously increasing in the Pune Metropolitan Region. Growth of rapid
urbanization, population, commercial units, institutions, IT and BT and township planning are the major
factors. Supply of drinking water is planned according to the growth of population but the coverage and
equitable distribution of water is low. Water loss during transmission and distribution is also higher.
Private sector participation is most urgent need to reduce water leakages, improve the coverage and
equitable distribution of water in Pune Metropolitan Region. Restructuring tariff will improve the water
use and reduce wastage.
Pooja Prasad and Milind Sohoni (2011) studied Sugave Water Scheme. The goal of this project,
undertaken by CTARA, IIT Bombay, is to understand the challenges faced by this scheme from technical,
social, operational and organisational standpoints. The Sarpanch of Borivali Gram Panchayat, which is one
of the largest beneficiaries of the scheme, requested CTARA to advise their people in the capacity of a
social as well as technical organisation to ensure that the scheme is completed successfully and run in a
sustainable manner. In this light, students and faculty from CTARA have studied the history of the
scheme, performed site visits, interviewed villagers, organised multi-stakeholder meetings and conducted
technical simulations to analyse various aspects of this scheme.
Gaurav Dwivedi and Makarand Purohit (2009) studied Privatized Industrial Water Supply In Dewas.
The study tries to analyse the present situation in terms of service delivery by the private concessionaire to
the industries, the earlier claims for promoting the project, problems faced by industries and the rural
population in enroute villages after the implementation, the status of water resources in the area, and the
emerging conflicts around water in the region. The study also tries to throw light on some of the important
contractual clauses of the concession agreement and the obligations of the private concessionaire which it
has not been able to fulfill. It also shows that despite the failures in execution the private concessionaire
has demanded post-contractual changes from MPSIDC like tariff hikes and extension of concession
contract. The study also deals with some of the issues of water conflicts that have been developing in the

water scarcity suffered by the people in both urban and rural areas.
